Veterinary Public Health is a wide area, including subjects that have to do with everything that comes from animals and can influence human's lives. It ranges from zoonoses to notifiable diseases and from food safety to environmental quality. An under exposed aspect of VPH is policy, and the way policy is and should be formed. It is through policy that technical solutions to problems in relation to veterinary public health are mostly implemented. That is the area where I would like to focus on most.
